Huh, only one Heavy Slot. I guess GW really had an issue with Venom Spam from Dark Eldar. Just read the rule on the Aft weapon on that VoidWeaver, it's kinda... silly. Just the fact that you have one gunner manning two guns is silly.

Ah well. At least Harlequins finally get their day, the models are beautiful, and the only people that can complain any more are Sisters of Battle players.

I see the Starweaver dispenses with the Venom's "one big weapon, one twin-linked little weapon that you can upgrade to a big one" idea and just goes straight for two shuriken cannon. Good. I've never met a Venom with the twin-linked splinter rifle; it's just a waste of plastic.

Wow, looks like I was actually right - unique force org and NO HQ :

Interesting.

Anyone for 7 Solitaires to the face?

S/he's unique, or are you postulating unbound?

Agreed.

I don't mind the holofield change, means they are effective against weapons which ignore cover again.

*Sigh.* I'm not sure if this is 100% accurate or not, but given the source (a GW manager), I'd say it's likely... The books are printed in China and shipped from there, and for the US, that means west coast ports. But the ports are having issues with unions, which is causing trouble getting stuff in there, so the books are going to be delayed, possibly by weeks, in getting to stores in the US.

If the rules weren't in WD, a lot of us wouldn't have any access to them any time soon.

I don't think Unbound ignores Unique. That's mentioned in a side note in the army building section, and specifically says that if something's Unique, there's only one of it around, or it's exceptionally rare.

I'm okay with Unbound if someone has a fluffy reason for it, but using it to get around an exception that exists specifically because of the fluff is just too cheeky.

Thankfully the digital edition shouldn't be delayed.

That aft weapon rule: gives a new meaning to CYA!
I personally love it.
